Aidan Valere Mershart new arrival

Aidan Valere Mershart

I WAS BORN: June 7, 2011, in St. Luke's hospital in Duluth.

MY PARENTS ARE: Sarah and Paul Mershart of Duluth.

MY SISTER IS: Ava, 4.

MY GRANDPARENTS ARE: Karin and Edward Piasecki of Duluth; Ronald Mershart of Superior; and Eileen Mershart of Madison, Wis.

MY GREAT-GRANDMOTHER IS: Michalina Piasecki of Duluth.

MY PARENTS CHOSE THIS NAME BECAUSE: It was the first name they finally agreed upon. The name "Aidan" means "fire or fiery," so they say it fits me perfectly!

PARENTS’ WISH OR ADVICE: You have brought so much joy to our family. May your life be filled with love and happiness.

SOMETHING SPECIAL: You were born less than an hour after we got to the hospital. We barely had time to get situated before you decided to make your entrance. And the moment you were born was the moment we learned we were blessed with a sweet, precious, baby boy.
